[wellylug] Installfest

[Klenner, Colin]

I have this problem from time to time on my machine - a VIA motherboard.
Mandrake does not seem to correctly identify the sound driver and will
occasionally load an incorrect one - don't ask me why.
Anyway check the driver settings from the Control Centre, look for a closer
alternative, and viola (usually).

Hi folks

I see installation of Mandrake 9.2 is included as a likely subject for the 
instalfest.  What about 10?

I know that it is still in beta stage but after messing up my installation 
of 9.2, I decided to try 10 as I had to do a new full install anyway.  This 
seemed to go fine, however I think I have encountered a bug - but it is so 
obvious that I am surprised: I cannot play music CDs.  Both KDs and XMMS 
show that the contents of the CD and indicate that it is playing.  Although 
default sound was set to 60% and I have increased this to 100% - still nada.

I have learnt from the Internet that many people are having the same 
problem.  (Worked fine in 9.1!)

Any suggestions other than a bug report to Mandrake would be appreciated

My thanks for those good people who did their best to get my system up and 
running again at the last meeting

Bugger, I slept through the Earthquake!  Good to see that we don't get 
flamed for being flippant on this newsgroup

Colin
